Understanding the use of rural space: The need for multi-methods

Article Abstract:

The implications of using various methods and combining different types of data for studying the use of rural space, which is concerning both physical land use and the practice and values of individual actors influencing the land use, are discussed. The examples from Senegal and Denmark illustrate the ways in which the approach facilitates quite different studies of both practice and values and how quantitative and qualitative data can be combined in a non-eclectic way.
